[arch-general] NFS server question
by Genes Lists 13 Sep '19

13 Sep '19

All: For client tracking and recovery on reboots NFS provides some mechanisms. My understanding is that nfsdcld is considered replaced by nfsdcltrack. However, while there is a system service unit for nfsdcld there is nothing for nfsdcltrack. The binary for both is available. Only the systemd service file is missing. Further nfs-server service file hardcodes nfsdcld with no option to use nfsdcltrack instead. What is the modern preferred way for the server to do client tracking? Thanks, gene

[arch-general] Arch Linux meetup at CCCamp19 22nd of August
by Morten Linderud 29 Aug '19

29 Aug '19

Yo! Chaos Communication Camp is happening the upcoming week and as with any CCC event we have Arch team members attending. Jelle, shibumi, coderobe, alad, david and me hanging around different assemblies. I have registered a meetup, similar to the one we did at 35C3, on Thursday 22nd of August 19:00. The plan is to have 2-3 short talks. So far we have planned one where Jelle talks about contributing to Arch, and I'll have one talking about Arch Linux and reproducible builds. If you have a suggestion feel free to email me. After this we will try have a Q&A/Community discussion session like during congress. It worked well and people seemed to enjoy it the last time. Link to the event: https://events.ccc.de/camp/2019/wiki/Session:Arch_Linux_Meetup I also packaged Arch Linux stickers. A lot of them, so come find me :) -- Morten Linderud PGP: 9C02FF419FECBE16

[arch-general] Orphaning some packages
by NicoHood 27 Aug '19

27 Aug '19

Hey guys! I maintain a few packages that I do not use anymore myself. I would like to orphan those, as I currently do not have time to test them, especially on major version upgrades. I want to keep the quality of our packages and hope that somebody else can take over the following packages. Otherwise I will move them to the AUR. * python-gitdb * python-gitpython * python-gnupg * python-pyusb * python-smmap * python-utils * python-progressbar Cheers Nico

Re: [arch-general] [arch-dev-public] Mkinitcpio replacement with Dracut

I have dracut installed in one test VM, but I have to run it manually after each kernel update. The wiki page [1] is still empty, so how do I configure proper hooks to build the initramfs (and possibly also disable the mkinitcpio ones)? [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dracut -- damjan

[arch-general] External monitors are no longer detected (Intel graphics)
by Bennett Piater 20 Aug '19

20 Aug '19

Hi, I'm using a Thinkpad T450s with Intel graphics. Yesterday, I could no longer connect external monitors via miniDP. They were not detected at all, either by xrandr in i3 or by sway (wayland). I didn't have time to dig out a VGA cable and try that, so I cannot rule out physical damage yet - I did try 2 monitors with different cables, both of which work with my wife's Thinkpad. Since wayland doesn't make a difference, I'm thinking maybe something broke with the (my?) drivers? Is there any other possibility apart from physical damage, and what do I try next? Cheers, Bennett

[arch-general] How to connect to iOS DCIM/APPLE* folders for copying items to the Linux PC
by Ralf Mardorf 16 Aug '19

16 Aug '19

Hi, is there a way to get access to the DCIM/APPLE* folders on an iOS device, without the need to install GVFS? Would it be possible with an app that depends on GVFS? If I follow https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/IOS#Manual_mounting it works for user apps [1], but it fails for system apps [2]. Without rebooting the device, it still works for user apps, after it failed for system apps [3]. I'm even not sure if any listed system app has got anything to do with the DCIM/APPLE* folders. Until today I used Windows 7 running as a VirtualBox guest, to get access to those folders. iTunes file sharing still works, but access to DCIM/APPLE* folders doesn't allow to copy all items anymore. I likely could workaround this issue by moving photos and videos to another user app, such as Audio Share and then use iTunes file sharing, but doing so would be a PITA. Fortunately there's something good with running into this issue. Until now I launched Virtualbox to share files between my Linux DAW and iOS DAWs, but seemingly I can access the iOS DAWs by command line, no need to run Windows in a VM. I wasn't aware of this before.
